- lt's not a virus. lt's a worm.
- What's it eat?

1:07:05
lt nibbles. You see all of this?
1:07:07
This is all of Ellingson's
financial transactions.

1:07:10
From million dollar deals
to $10 some guy pays for gas.

1:07:13
The worm eats a few cents
from each transaction.

1:07:15
No-one's caught it because
the money isn't really gone.

1:07:18
lt's just data being shifted around.
1:07:20
And when the worm's ready, it zips out
with the money and erases its tracks.

1:07:24
Joey got cut off before he got to that part.
Check it out.

1:07:26
Here it's already running
at twice the speed as when it started.

1:07:30
- At this rate, the run ends in...
- ..two days.

1:07:33
- lt's already eaten about...
- ..21 .8 million bucks.

1:07:39
Whoever wrote this
needs someone to take the fall.

1:07:42
That's Phreak and Joey and us.
1:07:45
We have to find out where the money's
going before the worm disappears,

1:07:49
so we can find out who created it.
1:07:51
l know who wrote it!
1:07:53
What?
1:07:54
This Ellingson security creep.
1:07:56
l gave him a copy of the disk
you gave me.

1:07:59
You what?
1:08:00
l didn't know what was on it.
1:08:02
Oh, man! That's universally stupid, man.
1:08:05
Yo, man. You're an amateur.
1:08:08
Why did he come to you?
1:08:10
l've got a record.
1:08:12
l was Zero Cool.
1:08:13
Zero Cool crashed 1 ,507 systems
in one day. Biggest crash in history.

1:08:20
Front page New York Times,
August 10, 1988.

1:08:24
l thought you was black, man.
1:08:26
Yo, man, this is Zero Cool!
1:08:29
That's far out!
1:08:30
This is Zero Cool, man!
1:08:33
Yeah, that's great.
1:08:35
There goes MlT.
1:08:36
- l'll make it up!
- How?

1:08:39
l'll hack the Gibson.
1:08:40
They'll trace you like that, man.
1:08:43
The cops will find you
with a smoking gun.

1:08:44
Fucked if l care, man.
1:08:46
Even with the password,
it'd take you ten minutes to get in,

1:08:49
then you'd have to find the files.
1:08:51
The cops would have you in five minutes.
1:08:53
Oh, wow! We are fried!
1:08:56
Never send a boy to do a woman's job.
1:08:58
With me, we can do it in seven.
